Every January, many people set the same goal: travel more this year. If that's you, you might imagine international trips, long flights, and faraway destinations. However, for many households, international travel simply isn’t attainable right now. Between rising costs, limited time off, demanding careers, and kids at ages where long trips feel overwhelming, that dream can quickly get postponed.
The good news? You don’t need a passport to experience the benefits of travel. You may be happily surprised to see that travel to Indio offers the same mental reset, sense of escape, and feeling of luxury—without the stress or expense of international travel.
Travel Is About the Experience, Not the Distance
The true value of travel isn’t measured in miles flown. It comes from stepping away from your routine, slowing down, and giving yourself permission to rest and reconnect. Whether you’re traveling across the world or a few states away, the benefits remain the same.
Travel helps you:
- Recharge mentally and emotionally
- Reconnect with family or friends without distractions
- Experience a new environment and pace of life
- Create memories that break up the year
When you're thoughtful and intentional with your experience, a domestic trip can feel just as refreshing—and often more enjoyable—than an international one.
Why Indio Is Perfect for a “Travel More” Resolution
Indio is an ideal destination for anyone who wants their travel plans to be a combination of exciting, relaxing, and manageable. Located in the heart of the Coachella Valley, Indio offers sunshine, open space, and a slower pace that are especially appealing at the beginning of the year.
Indio stands out because it offers:
- Easy access without exhausting travel days
- Warm weather during winter months
- A balance of activities and quiet downtime
- Family-friendly options without sacrificing luxury
This flexibility makes it easy to plan a long weekend, a full week, or even multiple short trips throughout the year—something international travel rarely allows.
Luxury Without Leaving the Country: The Brooklyn Penthouse
Where you stay plays a huge role in how a trip feels. The Brooklyn Penthouse in Indio turns a domestic getaway into a truly luxurious experience. Instead of settling for a standard hotel, this vacation rental offers the space, privacy, and amenities that make your trip feel intentional and indulgent.
Guests at the Brooklyn Penthouse enjoy:
- Spacious interiors designed for comfort and relaxation
- High-end amenities that rival luxury resorts
- Privacy and flexibility that hotels can’t match
- A setting ideal for families, couples, or group getaways
It’s the kind of place where you actually feel like you’ve escaped, but without jet lag, language barriers, or complicated logistics.
The Brooklyn Penthouse is designed to feel like a private resort, offering both space and thoughtful amenities for a truly elevated stay. With five spacious bedrooms—including two king suites, two queen rooms, and a queen-over-queen bunk room—and four full bathrooms plus a half bath, there’s plenty of room for families or groups to spread out comfortably. The home features a modern, fully equipped kitchen with high-end appliances and a dedicated coffee bar, alongside a generous living area anchored by an impressive 87” HDTV and high-speed WiFi.
Entertainment is built in, from the game room with arcade favorites, air hockey, Golden Tee Golf, and basketball to the private theatre room with a 120” screen and luxury reclining leather seats. Outside, guests can unwind in the 40-foot private pool with slide, sun deck, and hot tub, enjoy the outdoor kitchen with pizza oven and natural gas BBQ, or relax under the covered patio with a smart TV and fireplace. Yard games, a putting green, a misting system for warm days, and an outdoor shower round out the experience, while family-friendly touches like a Pack ’n Play and high chair make traveling with kids easy. Located in a secure gated community with on-site attendants and free driveway parking for two vehicles, the Brooklyn Penthouse blends comfort, convenience, and luxury into one unforgettable Indio getaway.
Perfect for Busy Careers and Families
One of the biggest obstacles to international travel is time. Limited PTO, school schedules, and work responsibilities make long trips difficult to coordinate. A domestic getaway to Indio removes many of those barriers.
Traveling to Indio means:
- Fewer days needed away from work
- Easier planning around school breaks
- No exhausting return that leaves you needing another vacation
- A smoother experience for families with younger children
This makes Indio an ideal destination for California residents who want to travel more often—not just once a year.
Luxury Travel That Still Makes Financial Sense
International trips often come with hidden costs that add up quickly: flights, baggage fees, transportation, and dining out for every meal. Choosing a luxury vacation rental in Indio allows you to enjoy high-end travel while maintaining financial flexibility.
Staying at the Brooklyn Penthouse gives you the freedom to:
- Cook when you want and dine out when you choose
- Avoid resort fees and crowded amenities
- Get more value from your travel budget
- Invest in experiences that actually enhance your trip
A New Way to Think About Travel This Year
If international travel isn’t realistic this year, that doesn’t mean your travel goals have to disappear. It simply means redefining what travel looks like for this season of life. The Brooklyn Penthouse in Indio delivers the kind of experience that reminds you why travel matters in the first place—rest, connection, and a true break from the everyday.
Sometimes the best trips aren’t the ones that take you across the world, but the ones that give you exactly what you need. Check our availability to book today!
